    New Taipei H3 #662

    November 30, 2025 in Taiwan ⋅ ⛅ 26 °C

    It was the AGM today, so out with old and in with the new. There were about 200 hashers on hand for this auspicious occasion, and they all came to celebrate. Trail was an excellent 6 km city run, but had plenty of scrub brush sections along the way. Circle was under a highway, so lots of echo, which made everything loud. It was all in mandarin anyway, but still hard to hear anything. Dinner was excellent, but had a long train ride back to the hotel, so bugged out early. Yes, yes . . . another great day on the hash.Read more

    Saigon Wednesday H3 #38

    December 3, 2025 in Vietnam ⋅ 🌧 26 °C

    Enjoying some local prelube events to the Vietnam Nash Hash. It was an excellent city run, taking in plenty of the inner city sights, all with a jaunt through the shopping district. 🤪

    Walker's got a quick 3 kms, while us runners navigated a 6+ km trail. All was well until about 10 min before the finish, when it started to rain, but we all managed to find our way back to the bar. Good way to start this weekend . . . tomorrow it will be a trail with the Sophisticated Sirs of Saigon H3, then Friday catch the bus out the venue for the big event. Boooo Yaahhhh.Read more

    Sophisticated Sirs of Saigon H3 #86

    December 4, 2025 in Vietnam ⋅ ⛅ 26 °C

    Another first for me, have chatted with the club and other clubs here in Saigon, to get them added into the Genealogy, but first time to run a trail with them.

    We had about 20 in the pack, 5 runners and the rest walkers. Runners' trail was a fun zip around the city, with lots of cool alleyways and parks. Circle was short and sweet, then off to a food court for a late night snack.
    That's it for Saigon, we catch the bus out to the beach in the morning, for Nash Hash. Good times for all.    Read more

    Vietnam Nash Hash 2025

    December 5, 2025 in Vietnam ⋅ ☁️ 26 °C

    Started the day with a 3 hour bus ride from Saigon out to the beach for this most excellent event. The trip was pretty much uneventful, so all good.

    The registration desk was fast and efficient, with two shirts, a waist wrap, couple of patches, and a dry bag . . . excellent.

    By 1700, the pack started gathering for the anticipated start of the red dress run, and off we go. Had a few issues with trail, seems the plan was to go down the main strip, then circle back on the beach. BUT . . . they set the trail at low tide, and by the time we arrived a few hours later, errrr . . . you can figure it out. They recovered nicely, by turning us around and taking us back to a point where we could access the beach and not be washed away in the dark. 🙂

    After about 5 kms, we were back at the venue, where cold beer and other assorted beverages awaiting a thirsty pack. A good start to what will certainly be a great weekend. On On.    Read more

    Vietnam Nash Hash - Main Event

    December 6, 2025 in Vietnam ⋅ 🌙 23 °C

    After my sorry showing in the BB trail at Pan Asia Hash a couple weeks ago, I was fully ready to go on the BB trail here. We loaded up the vans at 0830 for the hour + drive out to the start point. After a quick chalk talk, we were pointed off into the forest.

    Trail wasted no time in heading straight up a mountain for the next 600 meters. After that it was rolling crestline until we found the down escalator. After bottoming out, we again started back up the next mountain until reaching yet another peak. But the downhill on this one was brutal, slipping and sliding on the small round rocks and little branches . . . baby steps all the way down. We finally got to a stream, and then turned to parallel the stream for the next 2+ kms, both on the banks and in the water.

    The pack was spread out quite a bit by this point, and the lead pack was long gone by the time the second pack made it to the first drink stop. About 15 minutes later, the third echelon arrived, and yet another 15 minutes saw the final group arrive. Nearly half the pack at this point, had decided to call it a day (including me). I have begrudgingly come to the realization that trails with massive climbs are no longer in my wheelhouse of joy.

    Sitting back at the finish, it would be 3 hours 50 minutes before the first five BBers came in. It would be another hour before the next group finished, and over 6 hours before the last group came in. What a day. I still love hashing, but have to strongly consider which trails I choose in the future. 🙁

    After a nice hot and refreshing shower, it was back to the venue for dinner and socializing. Making an early evening of it to get a good night sleep. 🙂    Read more

    Bangkok Monday H3 #2189

    December 8, 2025 in Thailand ⋅ ☀️ 29 °C

    Short flight over from Saigon to Bangkok, but so nice to be back on familiar terrain. I always feel comfortable here, like home. Anyway, arrival, train to town, walk to hotel, check in, unpack, get dressed, and off to the hash.

    We had nearly 20 on this virgin hare trail, but she was supported by Virginia Slim, so no telling how good it could have been without his influence. It was about 6.5 kms headed out the south end of Benjakitti Park. Weather was perfect, and all was well.

    I have about a month here in Thailand, so time to relax and get caught up on so many tasks now that the book is done. On On.    Read more

    Bangkok Harriettes #2241

    December 10, 2025 in Thailand ⋅ ⛅ 31 °C

    It was a holiday here in Bangkok today, so we had an early start for trail. We met over by the Chao Phraya River for a crisscrossing of the river trail. Both side of the river had excellent small alleyways, back alleys, and bridges to keep things exciting. We ran over the bridge for the first cross, but after about 4 kms, we ended up on a pier where we had a short wait for the ferry to arrive for the second cross.

    Once everyone was accounted for once the trail was finished, we boarded a river boat for a dinner cruise to enjoy the city lights. It was a most excellent day on the hash.    Read more

    Bangkok Thursday H3 #505

    December 11, 2025 in Thailand ⋅ ⛅ 27 °C

    It was a cool evening, but good running weather. We had about 25 hashers on trail, and it was full speed ahead. With only 3 checks on a trail of over 9 kms, it was a sprint from end to end. It was all I could do to keep up, and barely took any photos. But a very good run.Read more

    Bangkok H3 #2489

    December 13, 2025 in Thailand ⋅ ⛅ 27 °C

    We had an excellent trail today, up north of Nonthaburi. Over 20 harriers were in search of trail, but working as a solid pack we tracked down all the checks and easily made it through. I was enjoying the trail so much, I totally forgot to take any pictures, just the start and finish.

    The Bangkok hash clubs enjoyed their annual Christmas party last night, so a few regulars were noticeably missing. 🙂    Read more

    Siam Sunday H3 #645

    December 14, 2025 in Thailand ⋅ ⛅ 32 °C

    It was the AGM, and the new MM took over. Well, actually the AGM was on Friday evening with the annual Christmas party, but we go forward from here. We started off with the sad news that long time Bangkok hasher, Captain Eric had passed away Saturday evening . . . may he RIP. On On shipmate.

    Trail was set by outgoing GM, Drunkin' Donut, and it was an excellent trail, with plenty of shiggy, pavement, and even a few small bits of confusion. Most of the pack came in after dark, but all were thirsty, so beers beers, beers for everyone. It was a B to A setup, as we were bussed out to the run start, and made our way back to the venue. All good times, best wishes to Pom and the rest of the new MM.    Read more

    Bangkok Monday H3 #2190

    December 15, 2025 in Thailand ⋅ ☀️ 30 °C

    It was a solemn event, as we first attended the "bathing rights" for our dear friend Captain Eric, who passed away on Saturday evening. We then had a hash trail in his honor, and it was excellent. Over 6 kms of fun on the run.

    It is always sad to say goodbye, but we know we are all going to be there one day. It is comforting to know that we have our hashing family to give us a grand send off. Honors to Capt Eric.    Read more

    Bangkok Thursday H3 #506

    December 18, 2025 in Thailand ⋅ ⛅ 28 °C

    Another most excellent night time trail in the heart of Bangkok. Over 20 hashers on hand to enjoy a PV trail, with 3 beer stops (I am not a fan of all the beer stops, but still a fun trail). We had visitors from Australia, Qatar, and other exotic locales.

    After the circle, we wandered down the street to the Blue Parrot, where the hare had organized a few pizzas for us, and we ordered up plenty of beer to accompany it all. Another great day on the hash.    Read more

    Bangkok H3 #2490

    December 20, 2025 in Thailand ⋅ 🌙 31 °C

    It was our annual Christmas run through Chinatown. Perfect weather for a fun run full of holiday cheer, on this 8+ km A to B trail. Could have done without the 6 drink stops, but all in all an excellent day on the hash. I complimented the hare, that despite all the pavement, and all the drink stops, it was just like the original hash . . . A to B. Sarcasm is always good. 🤪Read more

    Pattaya H3 #2130

    December 22, 2025 in Thailand ⋅ ⛅ 27 °C

    Took a little trip south to Pattaya to enjoy their Christmas Hash. A very festive day of good trail and holiday spirit. Trail was 7 kms, but had a lot of rolling hills that kept us spread out, but we all made it in to enjoy some mulled wine and BBQ.Read more

    Bangkok Harriettes #2243

    December 24, 2025 in Thailand ⋅ ⛅ 32 °C

    Not many photos, but lots of good memories. Trail was only supposed to be 7 kms, but with all the checks it turned into nearly 10 kms of Christmas Eve fun. Most of the extra distance was between 6-8 kms into trail on a couple tricky checks. Trail was really well marked, but only a few FRBs on hand, it took some extra work to keep us on track. Well done to AB for setting this trail . . . we even had a former NBA star (played back in the 1990s against Jordan and that era), washed up like the rest of us, on trail as a virgin. Good guy, with interesting tales to tell 😉

    More photos to follow if anyone has some to share.    Read more

    December 25, 2025 in Thailand ⋅ ⛅ 30 °C

    Another excellent trail from AB. A fun 8 km (OK, only 6.5 for the pack) of night time fun. Plenty of tricky checks, kept us guessing throughout. We had 15-20 hashers in chase, and all had a good time. Circle was short but fun, and then on in for a tasty Thai dinner. A great Christmas Day hash, one to remember.Read more

    December 27, 2025 in Thailand ⋅ ☁️ 31 °C

    We are taking a pause between the holidays to just have a good regular hash trail. As you can see from the map, it was basically a square. Weather was overcast, but pleasantly warm. Circle was calm and collected. Dinner was good and filling. We wrapped things up with about 30 minutes of hash songs, and then made our way home. A fine day on the hash.Read more

    Siam Sunday H3 #646

    December 28, 2025 in Thailand ⋅ ☀️ 31 °C

    This is the best time of year to be hashing in Bangkok. Temps are moderate, the beer is still cold, and trails are ever entertaining. Today we had the best trail of the week, and that is saying a lot as I ran 6 trails over the past 7 days (and yet we have another trail tomorrow). Trail today was a masterpiece of twists and turns along a thousand tiny khlong paths. I need to come out here and scout a future trail as well. I could not have asked for a better Christmas present.

    As we rock up to the NEW YEAR's celebrations this week, I'll be coharing on Wednesday, and haring on my own on Friday. Probably need to scout at least one more time though, so never a dull moment here.    Read more

    Bangkok Monday H3 #2191

    December 29, 2025 in Thailand ⋅ ☀️ 31 °C

    Another great trail here in Bangkok, but a bit tough to follow at some points . . . We managed to work together and figure it out though. Long trail was clocked at 9 Kms by the hares, but due to various issues at some checks, I wracked up 11 kms of joyous hashing.

    We had about 20 hashers on hand for the fun, and the last 30 minutes was in the dark, which makes it even better. Only one more trail left to run in 2025, and we celebrate what a great year it has been. ON ON!!!!    Read more

    Bangkok Harriettes #2244

    December 31, 2025 in Thailand ⋅ ⛅ 29 °C

    Bringing all the hashing to the end of 2025, I offered to assist Virginia Slim to set one more trail for the Harriettes. If you know Slim, the chances of some small F-up is not off the radar. We did have a good afternoon setting trail, but one back check caused much grief for the pack.

    Coming in to the start/finish location, we were surprised at the number of hashers who had turned up for this end of year adventure. We had over 25 bright eyed and bushy tailed hashers standing tall to take on this 6 km trail. At the appointed time (1715), the pack was off in haste. In celebration, we skirted ahead of the pack, to set up a "bubbly" check with a few bottles of the good stuff, augmented with a few beers since the walkers ended up drinking most of it. 🙂

    As mentioned, the one back check was solved by most of the pack, but a few did not have such luck, but even those that did, ended up missing the second half of trail in the dark. Anyway, we all ended up at the finish eventually and a rousing end of year circle ensued. After that, dinner was graciously funded by Slim, and all was well in the world. We then drove off into the night to find a NYE party or fireworks display to ring in the new year. On On and into all the upcoming hash adventures in 2026.    Read more
